Pause Awhile

The Cruel Horizon

Shadows stretch longer, whispers grow louder, and the world of Obinai Nobunaga, a teen trying to figure out his place in the world begins to unravel in ways that defy understanding… *whispering frantically, their voice trembling* “They’re… they’re dead. They’re all dead. I don’t… how did this happen? How could this happen?” *pausing, breathing heavily, pacing* “No, no, no, no, no. This can’t—this can’t be my fault. I didn’t… I wouldn’t… I couldn’t have done it. Right? Right?” *laughing nervously, almost hysterically* “I mean, it’s not like I just—no! No, stop it! Think. Think! There has to be an explanation. There has to be!” *voice breaking, barely above a whisper* “But what if it was me? What if… what if I did this? Oh God… oh God, what have I done?” *slumping to the ground, gripping their head* “Why can’t I remember? Why can’t I—” sobbing now “I didn’t mean to… I’m sorry…I’m so sorry…” Those who dare to hope must ask: When you strip away the comforting lies, will you embrace the shards of truth—or bleed by their edge? This novel is a mix of fantasy and and light sci-fi that explores dark themes. I can’t say much but it’s all a journey…a messy one…but a journey all the same. Come and observe the main character as he progresses…to rid himself of someone…and uncover the secrets of this world.

Destroy My Life In You

[Warning: This book contains Strong Language and Mature Content] On her eighteenth birthday, Ravenna felt the weight of exile as she was outlawed from her home because she could not shift to a werewolf, a mark of shame in their world that revered power. Away from all the ridicules and hate, she had at least a more peaceful life, until a beautiful storm knocked at her door. Deceived by its enchanting waves, Ravenna welcomed it with open arms until she was swept away into the deepest depth of the ocean of love. Being a daughter of an alpha, that was not supposed to happen even if she was not living in the pack anymore. Falling in love with the king of darkness. Alaric! He is the epitome of danger. But then, she turned his life upside down. From a heartless man to an obsessive lover. All he wished was to keep her with him. Even if it meant chaining her to himself. Whether what he felt was infatuation, desire or... he just would never ever let her go. Let no man or beast separate him from what he had claimed and marked; else they would face his unceasing wrath. **************** "Am of no use to you, why do you still insist on keeping me?" She just wanted to hear him say it. That he loved her as much as she did. She was becoming more desperate as days went by, maybe more than desperate to the extent of destroying herself in this love. Alaric paused and kept his laptop aside. He held her hand and brought her in front of him before pulling her to his lap. Silently, he sniffed her neck and licked it, then replied, "Because I want to." He continued his actions, and his hands were already moving under her dress caressing her thighs. Ravenna took a deep breath trying to stop herself from diving into pleasure as always. "Will you ever say it?" Her voice came out as a low yearning plead and with his advanced hearing ability, Alaric did not miss a word. "Say what?" His hand reached her pant ready to tear it apart. "That you love me." Her words made him pause abruptly before looking at her. As usual, his eyes were blank with no hint of emotions making Ravenna feel like she was just fooling herself. For how long could she endure this? "Do I?" He asked not tearing his gaze away from her eyes that were already tearing up. _________________________ This book is in the viral competition.

Top Assassins Call Me The Lady Boss

Warning: contents may be too hot to handle. Prolonged exposure may lead to steamy daydreams and spontaneous blushing. Ahmet's laughter was like a slap in the face. "You think you're in a position to negotiate with me?" he sneered. "I don't think so, Asli. You'll do what I say, or suffer the consequences. Do you want more time to outsmart me? No.” She could play his game. She certainly could. A mischievous grin formed on her lips. "What would you gain from sleeping with me?" she asked, trying to keep her tone neutral. "You're not exactly known for your romantic conquests. And we're rivals, not to mention the fact that our families would kill us if they found out." She paused, her eyes narrowing. "So, what's the real motive here? What could you possibly gain from this?" There was a pause on the other end of the line, and for a moment, Asli wondered if she had caught him off guard. But then, Ahmet's smooth voice came back, dripping with confidence. "I’m glad to know you are well informed about my romantic conquests. Let's just say, Asli, that I have my reasons. And as for what I'd gain… well, that's for me to know and you to find out." His tone sent a shiver down her spine, and Asli knew she had to tread carefully.

Nether God Imperium

Kael stood with his hands jammed in his pockets, glaring up at the towering, radiant figure of cosmic power before him. The godlike being’s voice boomed, reverberating through the void. "Mortal, do you feel no fear? You tamper with forces that could unmake existence itself!" Kael snorted, shaking his head. "Oh, I feel it. You’re big, loud, and shiny—pretty intimidating stuff." He paused, scratching his chin as if considering. "But honestly? I’ve been betrayed, shot in the back, dragged to Hell, and chewed on by something with more teeth than brains. Compared to all that, you’re just…meh." The being’s radiant glow dimmed slightly, as though taken aback. "You truly do not understand the gravity of your actions. You would defy even me?" Kael rolled his eyes. "Defy you? Buddy, I don’t even know your name. You’re what, Cosmic Glitter Beard? Look, if you’re here to smite me or whatever, just get it over with. Otherwise, I’ve got a heist to plan, and you’re killing my vibe." The being’s form seemed to shimmer with frustration, its divine presence wavering. Kael never asked for this. He was just a space thief pulling jobs to get by, maybe earn a little notoriety. But one botched heist later, he’s betrayed, shot in the back, and wakes up not dead—but in Hell itself. Surrounded by monsters, he fought, bled, and clawed his way out. Then rinse and repeat. Now back among the stars, Kael realizes he’s not the same. The Nether Crystal he stole didn’t just drag him to Hell—it changed him, marking him with strange powers and an even stranger destiny. But Kael’s not interested in destiny. He’s interested in getting paid, getting revenge, and staying alive long enough to figure out why every major power in the galaxy suddenly seems terrified of him. With the Federation cracking down on mutants and Nether Crystal smugglers, cultists stealing humanity's secrets, and interstellar war looming, Kael’s got no time for gods, fate, or anything else that gets in his way. He’s got a new path of power to climb, and if the galaxy burns along the way? Well, that’s not really his problem.

Child of Fate: The Enforcer

From the beginning of time, the two clans, Deva clan and Asura clan waged war against each other, where Deva's claimed to be on the righteous side whereas the Asuras were deemed to be evil as they committed atrocious acts of butchering innocent lives, meddling in the auspicious events of sages, etc., and staking claim on the throne of Deva Lok. The war has destroyed lives and various Lok's, in the end the three Supreme Gods (God Brahma the Creator, God Vishnu the Preserver and God of Gods who is also known as the Mahadev or God Shiv the Destroyer) had to intervene to stop the senseless war providing the much-needed relief to the common populace of God Realm. All the Deva Clan Members along with Devaraj Indra to the Tridev: "Namostu te Vedagarbha, Sarvavidya Pradayaka" (Salutations to the one who holds the Vedas and grants all knowledge), "Om Namo Narayanaya" (Salutations to Lord Narayana), "Om Namah Shivaya" (Salutations to Shiva, the auspicious one). While the Asuras in the leadership of their leader and Guru, Guru Shukracharya performed Shastanga Namaskara as they did worship God Brahma but for the boons he will give and the Asuras had a particular dislike for God Vishnu as he favors the cosmic balance and is on the righteous side i.e., Devas side but they still showed the much needed respect for one of the supreme beings and Asuras were devoted believer of Mahadev as he is the only one impartial among the three supreme gods. God Vishnu said "Devaraj Indra why must you continue this senseless war with the Asuras? You are King of Gods, King of Swarg Lok then what more do you need from the Asuras when they are confined to their Paataal Lok." Devaraj Indra said with respect "Lord Vishnu it was them who were creating chaos among the sages intervening in the sage's meditation and destroying livestock, so I had to confront them." Hearing Devaraj Indra slandering the Asuras in front of the Three Supreme Gods while not mentioning the mistreatment of Asuras done by Devas, the Asura Guru Shukracharya too said " Mahadev you have to uphold justice for the Asuras, we were just banished to the Paataal Lok from the beginning while the Devas got to rule the Swarg Lok. Why can't we Asuras get the same treatment as they do? And this war was started by the Asuras and Devas jointly but only we are blamed here." Hearing the Asura Guru Shukracharya, the Three Supreme Gods were too taken back as they too were not able to judge them with full impartiality so, Mahadev decided on a solution and solemnly announced among the Asuras and Devas "Very soon we Three Supreme Gods will bring into being a new force which will be born far away from here among the humans and his very journey will shape him to be the bearer of justice for all of the creation. He will be the embodiment of impartial justice whether to the Asuras or Devas for he will judge the being on the basis of his karma so I will warn all of you now that you should be careful of what karma you sow as you will soon be dealt with your karmafal." And so, the war of Asuras and Devas came to a pause. This is the story of a boy whose destiny was written before he was born, his very being was conceptualized but the Supreme Gods as he was born with the fraction of the three Supreme Gods. **It's my second novel as the first one is on pause as I am out of further plot for that one but this will be a blast because it is based on my cultural myth but there will be some changes so you can say it's my original work just taken some inspiration from the myths so whoever is reading and if he knows about the original history then don't criticize me for making the changes as I am writing a novel and I, in my full conscience am very respectful of the Gods and our culture.**

Her heels made a calculating thud as friction were applied. Few petals from the bouquet she brought fell off the ground as if they were confetti for grand celebration. Every eye focused on Einne with her grand entrance as they were all swoon with her sweet smile. Her hair brushed off with the wind as she elegantly motioned towards the man who was too paused while looking at her towards him. She wore knee-length white flowy dress which match her cheerful strides. She was beautiful being who is refreshing to look at that the crowd fix their gazes on her. She brought with her bouquet of red roses as if she happily received them from her lover. It was like a scene in a romantic drama, they were picturesque, the man and a woman intimately yearn with each other. The spectators nearby them took pictures and videos and post it on their social accounts. They were trending with that they with the hashtag #Onthespotproposal #Couplegoals. “I-,“Kent was interrupted with her hands. “Just 5 minutes.” She pleaded to him. “Happy anniversary to us.” She shoved him the bouquet in his hands. “I thank you for your sincere love. I thank you for the seven years you stayed with me,” “Einne.” He looked at her that he was about to cry. He holds back his tears, no one could compare the woman in front of her. She gave him all her love for the past 7 years too. She deserved to be loved and protected. She paused and looked at him. This time there was no warmth in her eyes. Her eyes were full of disgust and disappointment. “Let’s break up.” She pulled the ring in her finger and handed it to him. “Einne, I,” he was interrupted again. He too was surprised with the reversal of this event. “There will be no wedding. I already cancelled all the accommodations we already planned. I already throw the invitations, incinerate them to be exact.” “You don’t need to explain further. I gave you the liberty at your disposal. I hope we will not meet in the future. Congratulations Kent. You were free in my grasp. Goodbye.” Einne walked out with satisfaction. No more shedding of tears, no more pleading, no more revenge and schemes. Let’s keep the plot short and simple. Her life is already a major plot twist. With all the exaggerated events like lies, cheating and revenge, is not new to her. Why would a pessimist and monotone office girl like her stuck in an antagonist role? In a cliché romance novel where David and Carmen where the main character and she was the hated role? She will not waste her monotone life with this exaggerated and stuck in a novel which is she hated the most. “I need my life back!” she thought as she was done with this roleplaying. I was only organizing an inventory in the first place. What would happen to her salary if she missed her overtime loads?
